I had a car that smoked like that once.

Turns out that old 253's don't like diesel too much...

Love the announcers comments .. that didn't look good.

OK, what plans have you got for the next motor as I am sure that you had thought about an engine rebuild b4 everything went south last night.

well I dont reallllly know what my options are until I find out the extent of the damage, but assuming its just bottom end I was looking at an atomic performance built bottom end. 9 grand though. Surely theres a better way. If I didn't need a block itd be ok but yeah I do lol Cheers Jet morrrreeeee vids lol :D

Did you do the oil pump gears?

Did it have an aftermarket balancer on it?

Quite a few horror stories up here in QLD regarding the atomic motors, parts are as good as ever however assembly has been blamed on a few failures (doesn't appear brad is screwing them together himself)

Another high 400 car lunched its factory oil pump this weekend as well - same outcome as yourself.
